So me playing to win on my accounts is bad?
I never said I was against fair matching, I'm only being realistic.
My level of play on my second account is the same as the people I play with. The matchmaking system sees that that's the case. It's worse than on my main account, because I don't play my main roles or champs, but me smurfing doesn't ruin the game for anyone.
It IS fair matching if I just play to win and get the rank I'm supposed to get over time. I'm also leveling an account on EUNE at the moment, how am I supposed to play on that server without paying money for a transfer? Oh yeah, leveling a new account, AKA smurfing.
There's nothing wrong with it, as long as you play to win.
ALSO: You still haven't given me an example of a fake pro player in League.
> Alright, give me an example.
I've never heard of a fake pro player in League of Legends, that got his fame by buying an account online that had been boosted to Challenger. Never.

:
Yeah totally nothing wrong with smurfing.... you know its one of the reasons the community is toxic right? The team starting to blame eachother because some smurf or booster is wiping the team out in a few minutes.
Selling those things should be against the law especially when it comes to Esports. Theres plenty of fake "pros" in the esports community too, using cheats and hacks to gain advantage and fame they did not deserve.

Smurfing isn't the reason the community is toxic. Its the community that's the reason.
I have 2 accounts on EUW. My main and my smurf. I have leveled both accounts to level 30 myself, I play seriously on both accounts and I play to wjn on both accounts.
One account is my main account I play soloqueue on, on my main roles with my main champs.
The other account is an account on which I play if I want to play ranked, but don't feel like I'll play well so I don't risk playing on my main. On that account I don't play my main roles, I don't play my main champs.
Both accounts I play to win but one is a smurf the other is not.

I'm going to repeat this again:
It's not that broken.
Early (pre 6) he's still as weak as ever, and he has to waste A LOT of time if he wants to get all those jungle stacks. Just invade him, take his camps and let him struggle in the jungle. His Q still has a massive cooldown, 8 seconds.
For nasus to get all 39 stacks on the krugs, he needs to wait a minute and 20 seconds to get all of them. In that time, you can take his whole blue side jungle and wraiths included. Wraiths give him 27 stacks, but take him 50 seconds to complete.
I don't see how people can complain about him getting too strong, if you can punish him for it EASY.
- He's not ganking that often, your jungler can do that
- He's taking a shit ton of time to clear his jungle
- He's still very weak pre 6
- He can't get his CDR up as quickly as in lane, unless he builds suboptimal
- when you see a nasus in the enemy team get some hard cc and peel, he's useless then

What can riot do about it?
> Something i could recommend is talking to google and other search providers to find and remove those links so that people won't search or find it, or get the idea of buying something that Riot does not endorse or provide.
Not this, that's for sure. Buying accounts, boosting, smurfing, it's all not against the law. You can't ask a company like Google to police and censor the Internet just because you don't like it. That's illegal.
It's not illegal to sell those accounts, it's not illegal to buy them. It's against riots policy, but their policy is not the law.
They're already banning accounts that are getting boosted, they're ready banning accounts that have been bought. They can't do much more than that.
Also: smurfing is 100% okay, nothing wrong with it.
Boosting = bad
Smurfing = okay

Yeah it's a niche rune, but so is absolute focus. A rune only used by long range poke mages.
IMO celerity is in a pretty good spot at the moment. The champs who benefit from it really like it, but don't get too strong.
Damage scaling with movement speed in celebrity's current state would be way too strong. 10% bonus effectiveness of ms increase on top of scaling damage?
The damage in the game. Is already really high, upping it even further would be a really bad idea.

:
I also feel that it is a bit too much because Nasus has 900+ stacks pretty much every Nexus Blitz game and it's very hard to stop him from farming jungle unless we are able to end really fast or are just way stronger than the enemy team in order to do so.
But if the enemy team is already winning then Nasus will just deny any chance for a comeback.

It would be weird to just balance champs overall just for nexus blitz?
I haven't seen a nasus in nexus blitz yet, but I'm sure if he's too strong they'll tone him down in that specific game mode alone.

But you can still pick whatever you want. If I want to play Lucian support I have the right to do so.
Playing off-meta champions isn't reportable or bannable. And normal games are exactly for what he's doing. "playing off meta champions for fun" he's not doing it in ranked games.

Now that gtfo is out of context, so yes, i wish i could report you, but these forums seems to not care much about language it seems.

I have the "you flame? you stay" mentality.
If my whole team is just being nice and we're losing, yeah I'll vote yes on surrender if it's 100% lost.
If you feed, flame and get mad when the first surrender vote didn't end up winning, I'll vote no on every single one of the next votes.

Post chat logs or gtfo.
You don't get punished for false reports, so obviously you were being toxic as well.
I could literally have 9 people reporting me every single game and not get punished, if I just behave.

Ingredients
2 x 400g beef fillets
Olive oil, for frying
500g mixture of wild mushrooms, cleaned
1 thyme sprig, leaves only
500g puff pastry
8 slices of Parma ham
2 egg yolks, beaten with 1 tbsp water and a pinch of salt
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the red wine sauce
2 tbsp olive oil
200g beef trimmings (ask the butcher to reserve these when trimming the fillet)
4 large shallots, peeled and sliced
12 black peppercorns
1 bay leaf
1 thyme sprig
Splash of red wine vinegar
1 x 750ml bottle red wine
750ml beef stock
Method
Wrap each piece of beef tightly in a triple layer of cling film to set its shape, then chill overnight.
Remove the cling film, then quickly sear the beef fillets in a hot pan with a little olive oil for 30-60 seconds until browned all over and rare in the middle. Remove from the pan and leave to cool.
Finely chop the mushrooms and fry in a hot pan with a little olive oil, the thyme leaves and some seasoning. When the mushrooms begin to release their juices, continue to cook over a high heat for about 10 minutes until all the excess moisture has evaporated and you are left with a mushroom paste (known as a duxelle). Remove the duxelle from the pan and leave to cool.
Cut the pastry in half, place on a lightly floured surface and roll each piece into a rectangle large enough to envelop one of the beef fillets. Chill in the refrigerator.
Lay a large sheet of cling film on a work surface and place 4 slices of Parma ham in the middle, overlapping them slightly, to create a square. Spread half the duxelle evenly over the ham.
Season the beef fillets, then place them on top of the mushroom-covered ham. Using the cling film, roll the Parma ham over the beef, then roll and tie the cling film to get a nice, evenly thick log. Repeat this step with the other beef fillet, then chill for at least 30 minutes.
Brush the pastry with the egg wash. Remove the cling film from the beef, then wrap the pastry around each ham-wrapped fillet. Trim the pastry and brush all over with the egg wash. Cover with cling film and chill for at least 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the red wine sauce. Heat the oil in a large pan, then fry the beef trimmings for a few minutes until browned on all sides. Stir in the shallots with the peppercorns, bay and thyme and continue to cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the shallots turn golden brown.
Pour in the vinegar and let it bubble for a few minutes until almost dry. Now add the wine and boil until almost completely reduced. Add the stock and bring to the boil again. Lower the heat and simmer gently for 1 hour, removing any scum from the surface of the sauce, until you have the desired consistency. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve lined with muslin. Check for seasoning and set aside.
When you are ready to cook the beef wellingtons, score the pastry lightly and brush with the egg wash again, then bake at 200°C/Gas 6 for 15-20 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and cooked. Rest for 10 minutes before carving.
Meanwhile, reheat the sauce. Serve the beef wellingtons sliced, with the sauce as an accompaniment.

> if i was a legit new player i would have given up way before i got to 30.
If you were a legit new player, you wouldn't be matched with all those smurfs.
If you are smurfing, you get matched with all the other smurfs.
If you are legitimately new, you get matched with all the other actual new players.

You focus on honoring based on stats, but you don't remember who did well that game?
If sona went 0/15, and you REALLY cared about the stats of a player, I'm sure it would catch your eye that Sona went 0/15.
I don't honor based on score, but if one of my teammates went 0/15, I would remember that very well.

Moral of the story: "all new accounts get placed into Iron 4 after their first game"

:
Riot:"neeko is a lesbian"
Me:"ok, cool, why should i care again?"
i mean, seriously, we all know that even if they didn't say that she would have ended up in..."peculiar fanarts for all tastes".
{{sticker:sg-miss-fortune}}
But in all seriousness tho, i can see the reason behind the backlash. Riot announced this like it was something important when in reality, it's not. well, it WOULD be if it was done correctly. right now we have nothing to go with besides the tweet and the short video about neeko, so the announcement of her sexuality felt like virtue signaling and "SJW pandering". However, if they had waited a bit, maybe released a comic, or a cinematic with her showing that she had a wife or a girlfriend IN UNIVERSE....now THAT would have been a good thing.
Right now she is as gay as taric, ezreal, varus (2/3 gay), Vi, Caitlyn and Jinx (we all know what happens when they cuff her :P ) meaning that knowledge is utterly POINTLESS since it's basically fanon knowledge which, if we took it all as canon, would mean that Lux and Garen are "doing the lannister" if you catch my drift.
Neeko being gay is not going to change how players use her other than premade making dirty jokes in voice chat when she is ganking ahri or something, end of the story.
Look at Overwatch, they didn't "announce" tracer as lesbian, they showed her having a girlfriend in a comic, THAT'S how you do it.

> Riot announced this like it was something important
Not really.
They released her voicelines, people were like: "is she gay?" and then riot (or rather her designer) says "yes she is".
Only after people started asking they "confirmed" it.

Most people complaining about this think they are fighting "Riot giving in to activists", "riot pushing their agenda" or "pc culture" or whatever.
They'll say they don't mind someone being gay, but "not in my game".
What they fail to understand is that characters have backstory and lore. If a designer decides that a character is gay, then the character is gay. There's no agenda or whatever, just a design decision.
This is nothing like they did in Battlefield 5, where they actually pushed something, or changed history to do it. This is just a new character with unique lore, just like the other 130 characters in the game.

I'm assuming the Urf onesie is the same size as the Tibbers onesie.

^Hope that works
I'm 185cm tall and normal posture. (86 kgs at that time)
It covers me fully from ankle to wrist, there's plenty of space for me to get fatter (i think 1.5 of me fit in there). I've never thought that the onesie was too small or too big.
My ex was about 170 cm and thinner, and it fit her properly as well. I'm guessing that as long as you're not a yordle or a giant it will fit you.

I'm _assuming_, that with %%% you mean _"Fa­­g"_
> but for "%%%" which is, just a dumb statement to let of steam
I don't think you realise how much of a slur the word fa­­g is.
"Son of a bit­ch" is on par with idiot and stupid.
"Fa­g" is on par with the N word, dy­ke, cu­nt and other, more severe, profanity.
